Is this a legal play?
Opponent makes a rescue attempt with a hero who does not stop the following sequence. I block with Pharaoh's Cupbearer, capture him to opponent's LoB, and search my discard pile for Abram. I then add Abram as my Genesis character to battle (since neither the SA nor its Play As say Genesis EC). Since heroes cannot block, he goes to my opponent's rescuing side. Since I now have no blockers, the RA is successful. Abram returns to my territory as Abraham 10/11, having made a successful rescue. Yes?
(And yes, I can think of a few instances when this would be a logical play.)
